[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 3322481, member: 44288"] I have had 1 Springfield Armory full sized 1911. I changed it to one of those new Para Ordnance lower kits which was a real mistake. Couldn't trust it 100% and changed it back. I carried that and an officer's model on my ankle as backup. I trained with 1911's and wheelguns. Had to sell all to survive. I guess I was blessed but every time I picked up a 1911 and brought it up to eye level the sights were dead nuts on. That has never happened on any other gun I've picked up. Old JMB and I had the same hands. I have found SIG's to be too upright for my taste and have never fired a Glock. No desire to either. I love 1911's but they are like carrying a gold bar both expensive and heavy. My goto now is a full sized XD in .45 and a Subcompact XD in 40. If I ever come across any extra money the wifey and kids don't need I'm gonna get a Combat Commander or another double stack model, or both. :burnout: [/QUOTE]
